A GREEDY onv,Ai
One OF tho Most Powerful Members OF tho
f1rocOdIIo Family.

| One OF the Most Powerful Members OF tho
| Crocodile Family.
The gavial differs materially from
the ordinary crocodile in having its
jaws very narrow and elongated. The
best known Of this species is the gavial
Of the Ganges, or mudela, found in the
river Ganges and its branches, and
worshiped by tho inhabitants rs q
creature dedicated to tho creator and
ruler Of the waters.
The gayial has very long and narrow
jaws, widened at the extremity, and
filled with great number of teeth
The eyes are very small for the size of
the head, and the legs are poorly
developed. According to Edwards,
who first described this species, the
gavial has the extraordinary number of
10i to 110 well-formed teeth, the
strongest being tho two upper and lower
ones at the extremities of the Jaws. The
males have large cavity under the
very high protuberance Mt the end of
tho nose, which they can fill with air
and thus remain under water much
longer than the females. The color of
the gavial is at the upper part dirty
brownish green, with numerous small
dark spots, the under part being n
greenish yellow ending in white. They
reach length, when full grown, of
some twenty feet or over. The young
gavials, when just Matched, measure
about sixteen inches and are, according
to the naturalist Anderson, very pretty
creatures.
Very little is known in reference to
their manner of living. Judging from
the peculiar formation of their Jaws,
however, they undoubtedly subsist
mainly upon fishes, among which they
create great havoc; but very likely
many q creature which comes to the
river to drink falls victim to this
powerful beast.
A traveller who visited the sacred
crocodile lake near the city of Kurashi,
celebrated Mecca to the aborigines,
relates the following: "Thc lake con-
tanned something like fifty crocodilcs of
various sizes. The Brahmin, who was
intrusted with the care of the sacred
creatures, called to them to be fed, and
to the great astonishmcnt of the mar
rator they came at his call, placed
themselves around the Brahmn in n
semicircle, opened their jaws wide, and
waited to be fed. A goat was killed,
cut in pieces, and a piece thrown into
each open jaw. Having finished their
meal, they were easily driven back into
the river with small reed in the hands
their keeper"
1t is said that the crocodiles can be
tanned easily. Prof. Schlagintweit, the
renowned German philosopher and
naturalist relates having seen numcr-
Gus crocodiles with large drawings and
religious verses upon their heads.

Held FOR Murder.

Frank Ayers was examined yesterday
before Justice Taney on a charge of
numbering baby belonging to Mrs. F.
J. Cewles, and was held to answer in
$1,000 bail. 1t will be remembered that
a short time since row took place be-
tween Frank Ayers and a Mexican who
had interfered to prevent Ayers from
beating Mrs. Cowles. During that fracas
Mrs. Cowles baby was 60 injured that it
never recovered, and its condition and
that of the other children was so filthy
that Mrs. Cowles was sentenced for cru
city to children. When arrested she
stated that Frank Ayers was the father
of the baby which he is charged with
having murdered. The testimony elici.
ted yesterday did not differ materially
from that already published as having
been given at the Coroner's inquest.

Rulo was seized on all sides, dragged to

f1oor Some of the drunken roughs
took his revolver from him while
Others held him down. While
in this helpless condition Murphy beat
him over the head with the club, and
others picked up chairs and used them
as weapons. Officer Rulo was helpless
i'm the hands OF so many, and in very
few moments his head was in terrible
condition. His nose was beaten almost
to Jelly and his head was bleeding from
other places. The roughs finally
thought they had sufficiently ill.treated
him and allowed him to get up, At this
time Offi,er Reel entered, ihaving heard
the row, and Officer Rulo pointed out
Jerry Murphy to him as the one who
had bea. him with a club. Officer Reel
attempted to arrest Murphy, who was
,,hout to strike him, when Reel
drew his handouts and made
ready to use them as weapons. Murphy
then offered to go along, and he was
taken to the police station. When the
